I think removing that is not a good idea, as you say, because applications
might depend on that already. As an alternative maybe just put your appsink
into a GstBin and use that as a text-sink...

Note that you can won't get buffers properly interleaved from the different
streams btw... you can get, as you noticed probably, a bunch of buffers for
stream 1, then another number of buffers for stream 2 that are for the same
positions.

Yes, quite possible. You could prevent that by implement a query function on
your sink and not answering the position query there.
